SPECIAL  INTRODUCTION 


Though  index  learning  turns  no  student  pale, 
It  holds  the  eel  of  science  by  the  tail. 

—POPE 


THE  old  problem  of  the  limit  of  human  progress, 
whether  with  the  advance  of  learning  so  much  time 
will  have  to  be  devoted  to  acquiring  the  knowledge  of 
the  past  that  the  student  will  die  of  old  age  before  he  is  ready 
to  make  to  it  any  contributions  of  his  own,  has  developed  from 
a  purely  academic  proposition  into  a  very  practical  and  indeed 
acute  issue.  What  the  ultimate  solution  will  be  we  can  not 
foresee ;  the  best  we  can  do  is  to  postpone,  so  far  as  possible, 
the  day  when  the  period  for  original  research  shall  begin 
to  shorten,  by  inventions  for  reducing  the  time  and  labor 
needed  in  mastering  the  essentials  of  existing  knowledge. 

One  of  the  most  useful  devices  of  this  sort  is  the  analytic 
subject  index,  which  is  now  supplanting  in  all  important  books 
the  old  form  of  the  index,  that  consists  merely  of  an  alpha- 
betical list  of  proper  names,  with  no  other  reference  than  to 
the  pages  on  which  they  occur.  In  the  analytic  index,  not 
only  names  of  persons,  places,  etc.,  but  all  subjects  treated 
in  the  work,  generic  ideas  as  well  as  specific  themes,  are 
entered,  and  in  the  case  of  each  reference  a  clear  statement 
is  made  of  the  particular  phase  of  the  subject  treated.  In 
this  way  the  index  not  only  directs  the  student  to  all  the  in- 
formation of  which  he  is  in  search,  but  provides  the  parts  of 
a  scheme  for  classification  when  he  shall  come  to  synthesize 
his  selected  material.  The  function  performed  is  of  such 
great  and  obvious  assistance  in  the  rapid  and  thorough  assimi- 
lation of  knowledge  that  it  has  often  been  compared  to  pre- 
digestion.  This  implies,  however,  that  there  has  been  a  change 
in  the  nature  or  application  of  the  elements  of  information, 
which  is  not  the  case.  It  is  at  the  most  mastication,  a  separa- 
tion of  the  elements  preparing  for  and  inviting  the  operations

iv  SPECIAL  INTRODUCTION 

which  the  student's  own  mind  must  supply,  if  he  would  really 
make  the  knowledge  a  part  of  his  intellectual  being. 

While  each  of  the  four  large  indexes  of  the  present  vol- 
ume— the  General  Index,  the  Subject  Index,  the  Index  of 
Authors,  and  the  Chronological  Index — is  analytical  in  its 
construction,  it  is  the  first  one,  the  General  Index,  that  em- 
bodies most  fully  and  thoroughly  the  idea.  In  this  index 
alone  the  reader  will  find  a  detailed  analytical  guide  to  all  the 
essential  principles  and  facts  in  the  various  subjects  of  the 
series — History,  Biography,  Philosophy,  Economics,  Politics, 
Literature,  Criticism,  and  Oratory.  By  it  the  sixty  volumes 
of  the  series  are  made  available  as  an  encyclopedia  more  ac- 
curate, authoritative,  and  exhaustive  than  can  be  claimed  of 
any  work  of  equal  size  that  has  been  builded  on  a  different 
principle. 

As  a  proof  of  this  statement,  and  as  an  illustration  of  the 
method  of  using  the  index  for  a  few  of  its  many  purposes,  the 
following  treatment  of  the  subject  "War"  is  presented: 

The  theme  is  referred  to  in  twenty-nine  of  the  sixty  volumes 
of  the  series.  In  its  general  philosophic  and  legal  aspects 
"War"  is  discussed  in  volume  one  of  "American  Orators," 
volume  two  of  "British  Essayists,"  volumes  one  and  two  of 
"British  Orators,"  "Chinese  Literature,"  volumes  one  and  two 
of  de  Tocqueville's  "Democracy  in  America,"  "Demosthenes' 
Orations,"  volume  one  of  Carlyle's  "French  Revolution,"  vol- 
ume two  of  von  Ranke's  "History  of  the  Popes,"  Sir  Thomas 
More's  "Utopia "  and  Campanella's  "City  of  the  Sun"  in 
"Ideal  Commonwealths,"  volume  one  of  Hallam's  "Middle 
Ages,"  Bagehot's  "Physics  and  Politics,"  volumes  one  and 
two  of  Mill's  "Political  Economy,"  Aristotle's  "Politics," 
Plato's  "Republic,"  and  Montesquieu's  "Spirit  of  Laws." 
Here  we  find  references  to  the  conclusions  of  the  master  minds 
of  all  ages  and  countries  on  such  important  phases  of  the 
subject  as  the  doctrine  of  civil  war,  its  justification,  its 
dangers,  its  cost,  etc. ;  progress  in  the  arts  of  war ;  relation 
of  war  to  religion ;  armaments  as  an  assurance  of  peace ;  effect 
of  war  on  democratic  government,  especially  in  America; 
causes  and  motives  of  war,  such  as  geographical  conditions, 
desire  of  personal  aggrandizement,  annexation  of  territory; 
methods  of  financing  a  war;  the  Hindu  view  of  war;  the 
right  of  private  war;  beneficial  effects  of  war  on  society; 
relation  of  ethics  to  war;  economic  effects  of  war;  the 


SPECIAL  INTRODUCTION  v 

place  of  war  in  an  ideal  state;  relation  of  war  to  historic 
civilization. 

His  is  a  dull  mind  indeed  who  does  not  see  in  this  un- 
ordered, but  not  entangled,  array  of  ideas  a  wealth  of  ma- 
terial which  he  can  easily  rearrange  to  suit  a  specific  purpose, 
whether  this  be  to  prepare  an  oration  for  Memorial  Day,  an 
economic  or  philosophic  essay,  or  a  Utopian  romance. 

Specific  wars  are  referred  to  in  the  following  volumes: 
volume  two  of  "American  Orators,"  Rawlinson's  "Ancient 
History,"  volume  two  of  "British  Essayists,"  volumes  one  and 
two  of  "British  Orators,"  Creasy's  "Decisive  Battles  of  the 
World,"  "Demosthenes'  Orations,"  "Egyptian  Literature," 
volume  one  of  Carlyle's  "French  Revolution,"  volume  three 
of  Green's  "History  of  the  English  People,"  volume  two  of 
von  Ranke's  "History  of  the  Popes,"  volumes  one  and  two 
of  Hallam's  "Middle  Ages,"  Michelet's  "Modern  History," 
and  Hegel's  "Philosophy  of  History."  Every  important  war 
of  ancient,  medieval,  and  modern  times  has  its  references, 
some  of  which  are  to  political  and  philosophical  reflections 
upon  the  causes,  results,  justification,  etc.,  of  the  wars,  and 
some  to  military  accounts  of  notable  campaigns.  When  the 
entries  of  particular  battles  such  as  Blenheim  and  Waterloo 
are  consulted,  the  work  will  be  found  to  be  unusually  rich 
in  graphic  descriptions,  and  as  such  an  inspiration  not  only 
to  the  orator,  the  essayist,  and  the  novelist,  but  also  to  the 
poet  and  even  to  the  painter  and  the  musician.  Robert 
Southey's  poem,  the  "Battle  of  Blenheim,"  Lady  Butler's 
painting  "Quatre  Bras,"  and  Rouget  de  Lisle's  song  the 
"Marseillaise,"  are  artistic  expressions  of  ideas  and  ideals 
susceptible  of  endless  repetition  and  infinite  variation,  for  of 
such  sentiments  as  humanity  and  heroism  and  patriotism  the 
human  heart  never  tires.  History  and  philosophy  and  litera- 
ture are  full  of  suggestions  for  fresh  embodiments  of  these 
immortal  motives,  and  even  if  the  reader  does  not  commit 
his  ideas  to  writing  he  may  still  share  in  the  author's  in- 
tellectual and  spiritual  delight  of  original  conception. 

The  Subject  Index  is  constructed  on  the  plan  of  the  Gen- 
eral Index,  with  a  far  broader  classification.  It  also  serves  as 
a  table  of  contents  of  the  entire  series,  and  is,  therefore, 
supplementary  to  the  tabulated  Summary  of  the  Series  which 
precedes  the  General  Index. 

The  Index  of  Authors  is  an  alphabetical  list  of  all  the 


vi  SPECIAL  INTRODUCTION 

writers  represented  in  the  series.  The  large  number  of  these, 
five  hundred  and  nineteen,  is  the  best  of  all  indications  of  the 
wide  scope  of  the  collection.  The  foreign  representation  is 
unusually  large,  owing  to  the  inclusion  in  the  series  of  many 
masterpieces  of  Oriental  literature  here  presented  for  the  first 
time  in  an  English  translation. 

The  Chronological  Index  gives  tabulated  reference  to  the 
years  in  which  those  events  occurred  which  are  described  or 
mentioned  in  the  work.  These  occurrences  are  grouped  in  the 
various  divisions  of  Literature,  Law  and  Political  Economy, 
Philosophy  and  Religion,  and  History. 

It  is  earnestly  recommended  that  the  reader  make  an 
ineffaceable  mental  note  of  the  nature  and  uses  of  these  in- 
dexes, rendering  as  they  do  the  whole  work  readily  available 
as  an  encyclopedia  of  general  reference,  a  handbook  of 
quotations,  a  treasury  of  literary  suggestions,  a  biographical 
dictionary,  and  a  manual  of  classified  dates.

The  exigencies  of  space  and  the  system  of  alphabetizing1  titles,  adopted  principally  for 
the  General  Index,  made  it  advisable  to  shorten  some  of  the  above  titles.  A  list  of  the  titles 
as  they  appear  respectively  on  the  title-page  6f  each  work  will  be  found  in  the  Summary 
of  the  Series  beginning  on  page  viii.  Dramatic  Masterpieces,  i,  if,  are  indexed  under 
titles  Classic  Drama,  i,  ii.  Memoirs  of  the  French  Court,  English  and  American  Memoirs. 
and  Royal  Memoirs  are  indexed  under  titles  Classic  Memoirs,  i.  ii,  and  iii,  respectively. 

In  the  General  Index,  whenever  the  same  title- word  calls  for  credit  from  several  vol- 
umes respectively,  as,  for  instance,  on  page  368  under  the  title-word  WAR,  the  titles  of 
/olumes  have  been  alphabetized  as  in  the  above  list.    The  only  departure  from  this  rule  i 
the  General  Index  is  where  the  same  title-word  refers  both  to  a  place  and  to  a  person,  as  H 
the  case  of  the  title- word  ORLEANS  on  page  265.    In  such  cases  the  references  to  the  pla< 
are  alphabetized  together  and  precede  the  references  to  the  person  or  persons,  the  credit- 
ing volumes  being  alphabetized,  of  course,  in  corresponding  manner.

EXPLANATORY   NOTES 

The  Roman  numerals  in  the  "  Page  "  column  refer  to  Special  Introductions  and  other 
prefatory  text  matter. 

When  the  writer  has  omitted  to  give  the  date  of  a  noteworthy  event,  recorded  in  the 
text  of  the  series,  the  date  has  been  supplied  in  the  Chronological  Index. 

The  page  entries  of  the  first  edition  of  British  Essayists,  vols.  i  and  ii ;  American 
Essayists;  French,  German  and  Italian  Essays;  British  Orators,  vols.  i  and  ii ;  and 
American  Orators,  vol.  ii ;  are  given  in  parentheses  in  the  "  Event  "  column. 

When  there  is  more  than  one  entry  under  the  same  date  the  year  is  not  repeated. 
Thus  the  year  1515  is  the  year  in  which  the  forty  cantos  of  "  Orlando  Furioso"  were  pub- 
lished, and  the  year  in  which  "  Utopia"  was  written,  as  well  as  the  year  in  which  Roger
